While many parenting principles apply to all families, Christian parenting is guided by God’s Word and His love. Join us as we explore what the Bible teaches about raising children, navigating everyday challenges, and helping our children grow in faith. Together, we’ll discover how to bring God’s wisdom into our homes and point our children toward Christ.

Sharing His Story & Your Story
Teacher: Pastor Jim Cashwell | Room 136

If Jesus calls us to be His witnesses “to the ends of the earth” (Acts 1:8), why can sharing our faith feel so difficult? In this elective, we’ll explore what the Gospel is, how it has changed our lives, and practical ways to share both the Good News of Jesus and our personal stories with others. Join us as we gain confidence, learn helpful tools, and prepare to answer God’s call to be His witnesses!  

The Philippians
Teacher: Pastor Micah Burdett | Room 446

We’ll step into the city of Philippi to uncover the rich history, fascinating people, and timeless truths behind Paul’s powerful letter to the Philippians. Let’s explore the themes of joy, unity, and peace to discover how God’s Word speaks directly to the challenges and opportunities we face today.

Faith: Why Christianity Is the Truth
Teacher: Steven Garofalo | Room 445

What makes Christianity unique, and how can we know its claims are true? In this class, we’ll explore the foundations of the Christian faith and the evidence that supports the Bible as the definitive revelation of God. We’ll consider how faith shapes what we believe, examine how Christianity compares with other world religions, and discover practical ways to use Scripture to understand and explain what we believe. Whether you’re looking to strengthen your own faith or feel more confident discussing it with others, this class will help you grow in your understanding of what makes Christianity distinctly and uniquely true.

Spanish Bible Study — Meeting God in the Old Testament
Teacher: Bill Ogden | Room 242

God is Spirit, and with our human limitations we cannot find Him. Yet from the beginning, God reveals Himself to mankind. In this class, we will read the Old Testament as Auto Theography, God revealing Himself through His decrees, His acts, and His words.

Dios es Espíritu y, con nuestras limitaciones, no podemos encontrarlo. Sin embargo, desde el principio, Dios se revela a la humanidad. Este semestre leeremos el Antiguo Testamento como una Autoteografía: Dios revelándose a sí mismo a través de sus decretos, sus actos y sus palabras.
